Default Got a good one for ya!!!

My friend went to some seminar two years ago and she got a free (she calls it a NOTEBOOK). She says it's a red tablet with a built in external keyboard. She says it's the size of a kindle.

I have googled Notebook Tablet, I have tried to find out what the heck she is talking about. I think she put it away somewhere. She never used it. She is adamant that it's called a NOTEBOOK.

So if anyone knows about a tablet that is called a notebook and it comes with an external keyboard and it's in a red case (or it's red), she's not sure, I'D LOVE TO HEAR ABOUT THIS.

Thanks much

Melody

Maybe it was a netbook?

More of a mini version of a laptop.
Some look like Ipad/kindle type with keyboards.

When I first spoke to her about it and she described it as a tablet but with a keyboard, I said' is this a Netbook"? and she said 'No, I know what a Netbook is, this is called a Notebook and it's the size of your kindle.

So she is now checking the model number and the name because I told her if she didn't get back to me, I'd go nuts. rofl.

P.S. Will update

She finally had her husband look at it. It has never even been taken out of the box. It's a mini netbook. Now if these came out BEFORE Tablets, I would imagine they run Android 2.2. she's giving this to me the next time she sees me. She lives in another state. Hey, if I can download Angry Birds on it for Alan, and it gets on the internet, well, why not? And it has a keyboard that i can type on?

I'll make a video when i get it. This should be fun.
